Path.Combine for URLs?

Question

Path.Combine is handy, but is there a similar function in the .NET framework for URLs?

I\'m looking for syntax like this:

Url.Combine(\"http://MyUrl.

Here is my approach and I will use it for myself too:

public static string UrlCombine(string part1, string part2)
{
    string newPart1 = string.Empty;
    string newPart2 = string.Empty;
    string seperator = "/";

    // If either part1 or part 2 is empty,
    // we don't need to combine with seperator
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(part1) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(part2))
    {
        seperator = string.Empty;
    }

    // If part1 is not empty,
    // remove '/' at last
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(part1))
    {
        newPart1 = part1.TrimEnd('/');
    }

    // If part2 is not empty,
    // remove '/' at first
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(part2))
    {
        newPart2 = part2.TrimStart('/');
    }

    // Now finally combine
    return string.Format("{0}{1}{2}", newPart1, seperator, newPart2);
}
